"In The Best Yes, let Lysa TerKeurst help you discern the option that shapes all your other choices. Having trouble deciding which situations deserve a "yay" and which a "nay?" Are you living with the stress of an overwhelmed schedule and aching with the sadness of an underwhelmed soul? Offering Scripture-laced insights on effective decision-making, she encourages you to be honest, imaginative, focused, trusting, and humble as you discover the role God most wants you to play." - Christianbook.com
I really enjoyed this book and think you will too! If you ever experienced a moment when you weren't sure if you should do something or not, or in what order than you should read this book. It puts a Christian spin on prioritizing our choices. I think we all would like to know for sure what God wants us to do or not and when. I believe we have to become aware of the small voice of the Holy Spirit when making decisions. I've seen that when I'm trying to decide to do something or not I sit on the decision, pray on it, and wait until I feel a pull in one way or another before I act. The longer I'm a Christian I've seen the better I get at this.
I also want to add that I really believe praying at the start of my day puts me in the right state of mind for accepting help from God. I loved hearing recently someone said "pray continuously throughout the day and that will grow your relationship with Jesus". I truly believe this. Ask yourself this: If you want a close relationship with someone don't you feel that the more you talk to that person the closer you feel to them? I do! If you don't already I highly suggest you pray and read The Holy Bible everyday to be closer to Jesus. After becoming a Christian in 2016 Bob and I both pray and read the Bible everyday and now I don't feel like a stranger to Jesus and I feel comfortable telling him that I love him. I know I didn't feel that way at first. If you think you don't have the time to read the Bible everyday either read one verse a day or maybe download an audio Bible app that reads to you. You'll see making a small effort like this will help you create a bond with God.
The Blue Letter Bible has an audio section and you can even follow with the words while the Bible is read to you. Or if you prefer a paper version Bible you can order one from an Online store (Christianbook.com, Lifeway.com, BarnesandNoble.com, etc.) or find one in a physical bookstore near you. Plus today you can find an APP for your phone from either Google Play store or iTunes in whatever translation and language you want.
